Letter to Senator

To whom it may concern:(Sen. Feinstein, Sen. Boxer and Rep. Miller)
Advocating for : The Education for All Act (S.1259/ H.R. 2092)
Global Child Survival Act (S.1418 /H.R. 2266)
GROWTH Act (H.R. 2965)
Jubilee Act (H.R. 2634)

Hello, my name is Kimberlee Cox and I am writing in support of the bills mentioned above. In regards to the Education for All Act, I urge you to support it to help children in other countries have an opportunity to a quality education, as I hope you advocate for American children to be secured the right to a quality education. Supporting this bill would directly lead to a more educated global community, and possibly the solution to many of international issues and advances in science and medicine. You have the power to promote this by supporting this bill. Secondly, I urge you to support the Global Child Survival Act. It’s a sad testimony to the state of out world when innocent children die from diseases so simply they're considered a non-issue in our privileged country. All I ask of you is that you endorse this bill to make sure our country is doing it's part to ensure adequate drinking water, vaccinations, maternal health, etc. (for relatively no cost to us). Next, I ask you to please support the GROWTH Act. Two of you that I write to are powerful women who enjoy the ability to exercise our natural born right to become important people in society. I ask you to help give women in societies who aren't given the ability that American women are to become empowered and have an education, better jobs in adequate conditions with adequate pay. By doing so you will also be aiding the families of these women in developing countries. And it will cost you nothing. Lastly, I beseech you to sponsor the Jubilee Act. With this bill the debt of poorer countries will be cancelled in order to help them obtain their Millennium Goals and also hold them accountable for their own progress. In the process it will also make poverty stricken countries less dependent on America in the future. Once they become more economically stable they can refocus their funds to primary education, improved healthcare, adequate nutrition, etc. This act will be one for the progression of foreign economies. With all these things in mind I hope you will make the right decision and support each of these bills.

Thankyou,
Kimberlee Cox
